    Les..
    Brilliant.

    Metaphorically, probably quite close.

    Physically, on the other side of London. I can probably get to Bristol or Bath in less time than it would take to get to Barking.

    Thanks anyway Les. Much appreciated. Unless you could do a small detour via Fulham on your way back from Kempton in Dec?

    The last time I went through London,it took me 3 1/2 hours to get home due to a couple of traffic accident’s.
    I normally go via the m25.
    I avoid the big smoke if I can.
    Sorry Geezer.

    No problem at all. I know how you feel. London traffic is insane these days.

    I don’t live too far from Fulham.
    I’m sure I could drop a copy off if you want.

    Give me a shout via PM.

    Cheers,
    Matt

    Currently looking for Baikal Makarov pistols with the following prefixes to the serial number: 98, T01, T09, T21, T22
    Prefer boxed or cased but will consider loose examples too.

    We are lucky

    Well we are so lucky to have three great books since the Dennis Hiller editions.
    In no particular order

    John Griffiths Encyclopedia Spring Air Pistols

    Christopher Thrale's book of the Webley Air Rifle

    John Milewski's The book of the BSA Air Rifle

    In my opinion, I think these and Danny Garvin's online Vintage Airguns Gallery is as good as it gets.
